A unique process for renewing deteriorating water and sewer pipes without the need for open trenching.
About us
Aqualiner has a patented process for renewing aged water pipes without the need to dig up the pipes. Since 2007 Aqualiner has developed a fourth generation of fully process controlled equipment capable of producing liners in water companies live infrastructure. During 2016 one of the key objectives was to file one or more patent applications on aspects of the design of a new heated pig, thereby providing a further 20 years’ patent protection. Ultimately Aqualiner’s real value, both commercial and financial lies in its intellectual property. The original patents are licensed to Aqualiner under an exclusive agreement. By making patent applications in the name of Aqualiner on the opportunities for process improvement we enhance the value and duration of our own IP portfolio and improve the speed, efficiency and controllability of our process. Aqualiner received confirmation from UK Patent Office of the grant of its first Patent (GB2554431) in July 18. A second patent application (1802664.1) was filed in February 2018. Aqualiner has raised £6 million through a series of equity issues and has to date received two independent offers to buy the business from international public companies. One in 2010 for $21 million and in 2014 an offer based on an earn out basis. The latter was turned down by the shareholders.

Adapting Water Infrastructure to a Changing Climate Climate change is placing unprecedented stress on our water systems. The challenges are mounting, from rising temperatures and prolonged droughts to severe flooding. Ageing pipes, already vulnerable to wear and tear, are now pushed beyond their limits. Discover how trenchless pipe renewal technology fortifies infrastructure and provides a sustainable, resilient solution. 🔗 Read the full blog to explore how we’re future-proofing water systems: https://lnkd.in/eYHSWmgV #ClimateChange #SustainableInfrastructure #WaterManagement #PipeRenewalTechnology #Aqualiner

Aqualiner's pipe rehabilitation process only increases the thickness of the existing pipe by 3mm. This allows the water supply system to maintain the same standalone pressure - 50+ bar burst pressure. This process and polymer composite conserve the existing water pipe and is the only DWI (REG31) approved liner for UK drinking water distribution pipes.

The Aqualiner process cuts drinking water pipe replacement costs by up to 50% and increases the speed, by up to 10 times, of traditional pipe replacement. Utilising this technique to optimise drinking water distribution systems across the globe can save up to 20% of the water that is normally lost due to leaks whilst maintaining the capacity of the original pipe.

As global populations grow and urban areas expand, the demand for clean, reliable water continues to surge. Many of the Water distribution systems installed decades ago are now facing unprecedented levels of stress. These systems were often not designed to accommodate current demand, let alone the projected increases in water usage for the future. Without intervention, ageing pipes under increasing pressure can lead to failures, disruptions, and costly repairs. In this blog, we’ll explore the challenges posed by increasing demand and stress on water distribution systems and how Aqualiner’s pipe renewal technology offers a forward-thinking solution to these pressures. https://lnkd.in/eryjUSZw

Aqualiner offers a cost-effective alternative to the traditional repair and replacement process. By focusing on extending the life of existing infrastructure, Aqualiner’s pipe renewal technology helps utilities avoid the high costs associated with complete pipe replacement while improving long-term performance. Aqualiner’s internal pipe linings are designed to significantly extend the lifespan of existing pipes. By reinforcing the interior of the pipes, Aqualiner prevents further deterioration and corrosion, reducing the need for frequent repairs. This proactive approach translates into long-term cost savings, as utilities can delay replacing entire network sections. Investing in proactive solutions like Aqualiner helps utilities manage these rising costs while maintaining safe, reliable water systems. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e26Z-vMS

Rising Repair Costs in Water Infrastructure: What’s the Solution? As water infrastructure ages, the costs of repairs and replacements are skyrocketing. Frequent pipe failures, rising material costs, and community disruptions are straining budgets everywhere. Aqualiner’s Pipe Renewal technology offers a cost-effective solution: Trenchless Installation minimizes disruptions and costs. Longer Lifespan reduces the need for frequent repairs. Lower Maintenance Costs save money over time. Investing in proactive solutions like Aqualiner helps utilities manage these rising costs while maintaining safe, reliable water systems. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e26Z-vMS

Once reconnected the lined pipe is sterilised and put back into operation. The whole process of lining, connections and sterilisation is designed to be undertaken within a few hours. The Aqualiner process has a very small footprint on site. Potentially only requiring two vehicles on site.

One of the most pressing concerns in water distribution systems is the risk of contamination. As water infrastructure ages, the integrity of pipes weakens, leading to cracks, leaks, and potential exposure to harmful contaminants. It is crucial to ensure that drinking water remains safe as it travels from treatment plants to households and businesses. In this blog, we’ll explore the growing water contamination problem and how Aqualiner’s innovative solutions can safeguard our water supply. https://lnkd.in/e9DECiBK
